May 18, 2022 Meeting Agendas and Notes

• Containerized AGW build enablement:
  • Arm PR merge status – Fix for x86 CI job failure 

• Arm CI Enablement:
  
  • Decision on CI Infra
  • Containerized AGW build job enablement (Port x86 workflow to Arm)
  • Building and uploading dependent debian packages in magma artifactory on supported kernel versions.
  • srsRAN UE attach test addition in headless mode

Arm CI infra:

1. Initially Arm will have to host and then OAI can take over. Arm have to host AWS runners. Confirm with Aswin.

2. GHA doesn't support Arm instances. Use GHA self hosted runner. Tim will help on enabling GHA self hosted runner. Travis/Circle CI provide Arm instances.

3. OAI is working on integrating 5G and FedGW tests on x86. OAI will not work on LTE integration test (200 tests). CI platform is not decide by OAI. --Govind to work with OAI to enable Arm.

Porting debian packages to Arm – Done

srsRAN test in Arm CI:

1. Devops will not develop test case.
2. OAI or Arm have to develop and shubham will help in the process of automating it.

S1AP test in Arm CI:

1. OAI will take over existing S1AP tests and containerized S1AP test once Ramon's patch is merged in master.
2. Shubham won't be able to automate it in Arm.

Public OAI meeting is planned to discuss all these issues.

• Manual srsRAN UE attach test update

• Magma 1.8 release readiness:
  
  • Update magma documentation with steps to build and run containerized AGW on Arm with srsRAN tester.

1. Orchestrator, Fed GW, AGW images cannot be hosted in magma artifactory due to legal issues. Still in discussion with LF team.
2. Users have to build all the docker images to run AGW tests. Talks with Red hat to support universal base image.
3. Pre-alpha quality release – No Arm CI and not formally tested.
4. Check with Aswin about pushing srsRAN docker image in magma artifactory. Magma artifactory contains only magma related artifacts and not third party components. Magma community account can be used to use srsRAN docker image.
5. Scope of srsRAN test is restricted to AWS EC2 instance only. Docker image + AMI ID have to be documented.
6. For srsRAN docker image - Ansible playbook or Docker compose to run docker image have to be chosen. Check with Aswin and Tim on integrating with Magma.
7. Update the steps to run srsRAN test in 1.8 Readme. Check with documentation team whether magma docasaurus/Read me can be updated with the srsRAN traffic test steps.
   1. Per Tim, docusaurus have to be updated with Arm release information.

• Update on Bazel ARM readyness
